Sussex Partners has signed an agreement with Credit Suisse to introduce the Credit Suisse (Lux) Small and Mid Cap Alpha Long/Short Fund to selected clients in Switzerland, Liechtenstein, the UK and the Netherlands.

The agreement between Sussex Partners and Credit Suisse follows a lengthy period of discussion and due diligence between the parties.

Patrick Ghali, managing partner of Sussex Partners, says: "We were looking for a good European long/short fund for a long time, but hadn’t been able to find a manager that we found truly convincing, able to deliver consistent risk adjusted returns and that was suitable also from an operational standpoint for our clients. We are very excited about working with Credit Suisse on this compelling fund. The fact that the strategy is available in a UCITS format further enhances its attractiveness and unique position in the market."
